Those things all occurred before gay marriage. As I see it civil unions wouldn’t further or restrain any of it. Unmarried gay couples and single gay parents have been adopting children for quite awhile.
Muir, this isn’t about civil unions any longer. But that it were! The homosexualists no longer even want civil unions. This is about redefining marriage.
I don't understand what you mean by "civil unions," or that topic's relevance, since the article is about eliminating government ... "civil" ... recognition of unions.
